Just in case anybody just got off the bus from Mars, here is the old joke:
A lady in on the couch talking to her psychiatrist. The doctor, takea a puff from his pipe, and asks the lady, “Suppose a total stranger were to walk up to you offer one million dollars for one night of sex?”
“Well I suppose for a million dollars”, the lady says.
Her doctor comes back, “Well if I gave twenty-five dollars, would have sex with me on the couch right now?”
“Why doctor! What do you think I am?”
To which the doctor replies, “We have already established that. Now we just haggling over the price.”
More on what Bit rambled [1]:
That woman selling her virginity? She suppsoedly got the idea from her sister who did some high dollar prostitution, too. So, forget about presenting this thing as any kind of morality play; it’s already a lost cause, on that level. We’re left with the practical;
From the Telegraph [2](UK):
Natalie Dylan, 22, claims her offer of a one-night stand has persuaded 10,000 men to bid for sex with her.
Last September, when her auction came to light, she had received bids up to £162,000 ($243,000) but since then interest in her has rocketed.
The student who has a degree in Women’s Studies insisted she was not demeaning herself.
I guess Dylan’s parents can feel proud that they only raise espensive whores. As for three point seven million, I that is bit more than I have on me at the moment. Oh well, the price will come down and there is the inevitable Playboy spread.
Hat tip and more: Robert Stacy McCain, The Real Other McCain:
I keep watching Memeorandum, waiting for Feministing or some other feminist site to jump on Miss Dylan. The apparent indifference is beginning to seem suspicious.
I doubt the cows will weigh in.
